You will join at a point where you can make a visible contribution to how the private client function develops. \n \n For the right person, the package may also include significant performance-related bonus incentives and the potential for longer-term equity participation. \n \n What We’re Looking For \n \n You will already have a strong background in private client tax and be comfortable advising clients on complex and sensitive financial matters. \n \n Ideally, you will have: \n \n\n • CTA, ACA, ACCA, CA or an equivalent professional qualification\n, • Strong private client or personal tax advisory experience\n, • Experience working with high-net-worth individuals, entrepreneurs or business-owning families\n, • Knowledge of income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax\n, • Exposure to trusts, succession planning or wealth structuring\n, • The ability to interpret legislation and apply it to complex real-life situations\n, • Excellent communication skills and the confidence to lead senior client conversations\n, • Experience reviewing work and supporting the development of junior colleagues\n, • International private client tax experience would be advantageous\n, • A proactive, commercial and relationship-led approach\n\n \n Applications are welcomed from established Private Client Tax Managers, as well as ambitious Assistant Managers or Senior Private Client Tax Advisors who are ready to step into a broader role. \n \n For further information or a confidential discussion, please get in touch.

Lettings & Portfolio Growth Manager Location: Manchester City Centre Salary: £30,000-£32,000 basic + commission & profit share OTE: Circa £53,000+ in year one Hours: Monday-Friday, 9:00am-5:30pm Working Pattern: Office based, 5 days per week UK Staffing Group is recruiting for a Lettings & Portfolio Growth Manager to join an established and growing property investment business in Manchester city centre. This isn't a traditional Property Manager role. We're looking for someone who knows lettings inside out but also has the commercial ability and confidence to grow a portfolio, win landlord instructions and build strong relationships with property investors . The business already has around 155 properties under management and, importantly, an established property investment operation generating a regular flow of landlords and investors. You won't be expected to build a pipeline from scratch - the opportunity is to convert more of that existing activity into managed properties and help develop the lettings side of the business. The Opportunity You'll work closely with the business owner and have genuine freedom to shape how the lettings operation develops. Back-office property management is supported externally, meaning your focus can be much more commercial - developing landlord relationships, converting opportunities, increasing recurring income and identifying ways to improve and grow the portfolio. This would suit somebody who wants more ownership than a traditional lettings role can offer and likes the idea of helping build something rather than simply maintaining what is already there. Key Responsibilities Develop and grow the existing managed property portfolio. Convert existing investor and landlord opportunities into managed instructions. Build strong, long-term relationships with landlords and property investors. Understand individual investors' objectives and provide commercially sound lettings advice. Identify opportunities to increase recurring lettings revenue. Work closely with the property investment/sales team to maximise existing opportunities. Review existing processes and suggest improvements. Take ownership of the commercial performance and growth of the lettings operation. Work closely with external property-management support to ensure a strong overall service. About You We're looking for someone with approximately 3+ years' experience within lettings/property who combines strong industry knowledge with a genuinely commercial mindset. You could currently be working as a Lettings Manager, Senior Lettings Negotiator, Lettings Valuer, Lettings Business Development Manager, Landlord Acquisition Manager, Assistant/Branch Manager or in a portfolio role with a strong business-development element. You'll need to be: Experienced within residential lettings/property. Confident winning and converting new landlord business. Comfortable dealing directly with landlords and experienced property investors. Commercially minded and able to understand how a managed portfolio generates revenue. A strong communicator who can adapt their approach to different clients. Proactive, ambitious and comfortable taking ownership. Confident enough to challenge existing thinking and suggest better ways of doing things. Able to work independently without needing constant direction. A full UK driving licence holder. ARLA/Propertymark Level 3 would be advantageous but isn't essential. What's On Offer £30,000-£32,000 basic salary. Circa £53,000+ realistic OTE in year one . Flat fee for each new managed property. Monthly profit share linked to lettings income. Existing portfolio and investor pipeline to work from. 23 days' holiday plus bank holidays. Pension. Company mobile phone and laptop. Pool car for business travel. Significant autonomy and scope to shape the role. Genuine progression as the lettings operation grows. If you're an experienced lettings professional who enjoys the commercial side of property, winning business and developing landlord relationships , this offers considerably more scope than a conventional portfolio-management position. Apply now for immediate consideration.
